were offered at public sale at Sidney, onTuesday ; several sections along the rail-

road were sold at from $10 to $16 peracre. Mr. Foss, of the firm of Dawes,Foss & Huffman, bought part of a sectionnear Chappell, paying $51 per acre. Heis confident of the division of the countyand bought on the prospect of Chappellas a county seat. KimbalL Obtcrter.

A Romanes.The romance writer on the Advocate is

still at it. This time it happened on thetributary to the upper Frenchman. Totell it briefly, Peter Scblegel, an oldGerman farmer, had a daughter, ' buxom,handsome and pleasing to the eye," es-

pecially attractive to the italic optic ofHans Upperman. The old farmer hadserious objections to Hans, but the girlreciprocated to the best of her Teutonicability. After a row, they "bucked andgaged" the irate paternal sire, and theyoung couple, with all sails set, headedfor Akron. The old man missed the trailand started towards Sterling.

a society with a capital stockof $1,000 to be used in general business.They have forced the lumber yardatDanbury to keep coal at $5750 per ton-- .

for want of sufficient residence, andgives him thirty days iu which to go intothe land and complete his residence.Charley makes affidavit that he was notoff the land except at short intervals, andtben only to earn a livelihood and moneyto improve the claim. What effect thisaffidavit will have with the powers thatbe, remains to be seen. Akron Press.

A Victim of Dynamite.A gentleman named Stearns was a

passenger on Sunday's noon train goingeast . He had with him John Delaney , aminer, who had both of his legs blown off,his left arm shattered, and his eye sightruiued, by an explosion in a mine nearLeadville. Both of the unfortunate man'slegs had been amputated below the knees,and Mr. S. was taking him to Chicago inhopes that something might be done torestore his eye-sigh- t. Sterling Advocate'.

Tb e-D- i vision Wanted.The board of county commissioners has

been in session several days this week.Not much business of of importance wastransacted excepting the purchase of landfor a poor farm, the leasing of Mr. Fitch'sfor a temporary poor farm and the decis-

ion arrived at by the board to submit tofour county division petitions. Theeastern third which petitions to be cut off,will be called Dual county. The westthird will be divided into three counties,the north county to be called Scotts Bluffscounty, the center Banner county and, thesouth third Kimball county Cheyennecounty's lines will be just west of Potterand east of Lodge Pole. This is thedivision decided on at the Kimball con-

vention and there is every probabilitythat it will carry. Potter county andWright county petitions were both deniedas they conflicted with the division thathas been proposed. Commissioners Davisand Neumann voted in favor of the threecounty plan, Commissioner Smith oppos-

ing. The board has acted wisely in thismatter by favoring the practical plan andthe only one there was any hope of carry-

ing. It will compel Potter people tomake the fight if they have good legalgrounds on which to oppose division.Sidney Telegraph .

Diseased Horses.As per previous announcement the

state veterinary surgeon visited the cityyesterday to examine the deceased horsesof the county, with a view of killing allthat had glanders. There were amongthe number examined, fourteen head con-

demned and ordered killed There weresome very fine horses that were fat andlikely lookins that had to be shot. It ishard-t- see horses thus shot down, but thework should be continued until the countyis freed of glandered horsas. It entailsquite a loss.upon the owners as they onlyreceive about fifty per cent of the value ofthose condemned. Broken Bow Repub-lican

citizens of Grand Island and the beetsugar trust. The outlay in this industrywill be five hundred thousand dollars. aDdgives to that city one of the most import-ant, and in fact leading industries in theUnited States. It will bring a greatincrease in population and a vast amountof wealth. We congratulate her iu hersuccess.

culture are sending out the cards an-

nouncing the State Fair to be held fromSeptember 7th to 14th, 1888, inclusive,the exhibition opening properly on the6th.

Strang Co., of Omaha, to build a pipe "

line from Green River Station to RockSprings, for the purpose of supplying thecamp and coal mines and the town withwater. For the past eighteen years awater train has run daily between thosetwo points, and all water used by the townand all mines but one has been suppliedwith water by train. The average amounthauled from Green River was about onehundred thousand gallons dailyand some seasons of the year the watertrain was not able to s upply all the waterneeded any some of the mines were un-

able to work during the short supplyA letter received from Vice President
